What makes this a horrible time for the Redskins and fans is that the expectations for the team were unrealistic. If you reset your expectations, things are different.

We have some real difficulties now. I actually think its kind of fun to see how we are going to adapt to the circumstances with the personnel we have. To me a successful season isn't in the win loss column but how you deal with adversity.

I will say this - winning Super Bowl 17 was a lot more fun because of the 0-5 the season before. Everyone could see how the team worked so hard to overcome the challenges and it meant a lot more than if we had just won won won without any problems.

We have the best coaching staff on Earth, and that isn't changed by the occasional mistake. We have a solid core of players who are a super foundation for us. I am so grateful that Joe Gibbs is back. We are on our way.
